The Schedule 'referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of thelame.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, PHILIP G. BECKLE'Y, ofNewark, in the county of Essex, and in the State of N e`w Jersey, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Ghilds Chair and Tablecombined; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, andexact description thereof', reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, and to the letters of refer ence marked thereon, making a partof this specifica tion. l

The nature of my invention consists in the combination of a childsplay-table and chair, so as to form a dining-chair, as will be hereafterset forth and -described. i,

Figure 1 is a perspective of the table and chair. so arranged as to forma high dining-chair.

Figure 2 is a perspective of the two, placed side by side on the Hoor.

Letter. A represents zur ordinary small chair, used by little children,which has a hook, b, attached to each one of' its front legs, near thebottom.

B is a childs small play-table, which has four re cesses formed in itstop, in which the legs of the chair lit, so as to hold it steady, andprevent it from sliding about, and has two staples. c, on top, and two.d. at-

tached to the inner sides of the front legs, which receive the hooks b,on the chair, and thus bind the two firmly together.

When it is desired to form a high dining-chair, so that the child cansit at a large table, the chair A is placed upon the top of the table,and the hooks secured in the staples, and, as the legs of the table arespread further apart than those of a small childs chair, it forms a muchsafer and more solid one.

When the two are placed side by side, on the Hoor, and fastenedtogether, the child is prevented from either falling from or upsettingthe chair, while the table selves to hold itsplaythings.

Having thus described my invention,

What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is- ,'l1`hecombination of the table B, with perforations and staples on its top,with the chair A, .provided wit-h the hooks, as and for the purposesspecified.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing, I have hereunto yset my hand,this 11th day of' May, 1869.
